Zab needed the Tszyu rematch to get back to his superstar projection and he never got it. His mental was never the same after that loss even after becoming champion multiple times after.
I think Zab vs Tszyu 2 is one of he top 10 rematches we never got that we should have got.
Zab behavior after the fight messed things up too, but still

So are you saying Zab was past his prime when he fought Tszyu?
In a lot of his fights, Zak’s dad used to admonish him by begging him to “let your hands go”. In every loss you’d hear his dad beg him to do just that. Zab never did. Once he was gone mentally, Zab was done. That is not a trait of a proud guy that never wanted to be in a lackluster fight.
I bet money on Zab beating Cotto. In fact I thought he would win by KO. Speed and power. But Zab literally quit.
As for Floyd, it’s the same rhetoric we hear, either Zab scored a knockdown or Shane would have KO’d him with endless IF scenarios.
None of that happened. Floyd adjusts and takes over the fights. How is it that in 50 pro fights, the Zab knockdown and Mosley’s TWO punches is what people get fixated on?Last edited by archiemoore1; 08-07-2025, 07:48 PM.

Ask Perico Pauline Malignaggi's eye socket and his cheekbone. Ask Floyd's bloody swollen nose and his busted mouth. And to say Zab quit against him, u crazy. Cotto hurt ppl for real. He wasn't in there making love. From bell to bell, he was trying his very hardest to f ...k you up, and he succeeded many many times at doing so. Zab is a great fighter. You downplay Zab but honestly you couldn't do 10 seconds with a prime Zab. Just being real
Salty? All I lost was a measly $20. For such a small amount, I’m going to be salty? Seriously!
Can you do 10 seconds with a prime Paulie? Can you do 10 seconds with Amir Khan?
What kind of argument is that? No one is hating in Zab. The whole article is dissecting Zab’s strengths and weakness. Are you going to ask the writer if he is going to last 10 seconds with Zab? This is what we call juvenile arguments.

I gotta ask ….. did we need to see a Floyd-Hatton rematch? Or a Spence-Crawford rematch? Or a Canelo-Bivol rematch? Or a Calzaghe-Lacy rematch?
Zab was destroyed by Tszyu. What exactly compels a rematch? Do you think we should have gotten a Khan-Zab rematch? Of Cotto-Zab rematch? Or or or even a Mosley-Floyd rematch? There were people calling for it because if the ONLY TWO punches Mosley landed.
Perhaps even a Floyd-Zab rematch?
There was never a need for a rematch.

How tf is that comparable to lacy vs Calzaghe or floyd vs Hatton or canelo vs bivol or Mosley vs floyd?

———-
That’s what you wrote to me because I “downplayed” Zab.
Did you not ask that? It’s a simple YES or NO question.
In the same EXACT context, you keep downplaying Paulie so I am asking you the same question, can you last 10 seconds with Paulie? Once again, it’s a very simple question - YES or NO?
